17 Technical and Tactical Skills BASIC TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL SKILLS IN VOLLEYBALL TECHNICAL SKILLS: SERVING Serving is the beginning of the play or rally. The team who wins the point will be the one who gets to serve. The players take turns on doing service by rotation. There are different types of serve but the image below is the most common.

18 PASSING / RECEIVING Passing is the first touch by the team, it is used when the opponent served and when the opponent attacked the ball. The goal of passing is to pass it to the setter to perform an attack. SETTING Setting is the second touch by the team and it's goal is to set the ball to the hitter. There are different types of setting and it depends on the hitter's preferences.

19 ATTACKING Attacking is to hit the ball towards the opponent's side of court. This can be done by spiking, setting, tipping, etc. as long as the ball fell to the opponent's side of court and done legally. BLOCKING Blocking is one of the defensive move in volleyball. The purposes of blocking is to deflect the ball that is coming from the opponent and to reduce the speed of the ball. Be careful on blocking, if the ball that you blocked landed outside of the court, the opposing team wins the point (Ball Touched).

20 DIGGING Digging is also part of defensive play of volleyball. Digging is passing the ball to the setter but the difference between them is that digging is used to a hard-driven spike.

21 TACTICAL SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES: By reading and analyzing the play or situation, you can come up with strategies. You can use these tactics and techniques to your strategies. SERVING There are different types of serve and you can use them to trick and to pressure your opponent. Serve is also a powerful weapon because no one is going to stop you. Here are some examples how you can use serve as a weapon. The serve that had been used in the video is what you call \"Jump Float Serve\", it's not rotating and just moving. That movement confuses the opponent because it changes it's direction while in the air. The best way to receive this serve is using the overhand pass. The player in the video took advantage of the lights in the ceiling and use the underhand serve, although it's just a normal serve but if you use it right — like in the video, it can be a weapon.

22 ATTACKING As mentioned previously, attacking can be done by spike, set, toss, etc. it doesn't matter what on what way you attack as long as it is done legally. Here are the few techniques that you can use in attacking: In this video, the setter used \"Dump\", it's a technique that tricks the blockers and can also trick your teammates — but it's a good thing that even your teammates got tricked because it will be more effective. Be sure to do not make it obvious when doing this. The hitter in this video set the ball that was set to him to another hitter. It's a good technique to trick the blockers but be careful on doing this, only trained players can do this.

23 \"Feint\" is also a good and easy technique to do in tricking the opponents. When doing this, be sure to check the opponent's court if they aren't near to the net so they can't save the ball. This is what you call \"Rebound\". If you're unsure about your spike because of blockers, you hit the ball a little weak to their palm to rebound it. The hitter purposely delayed his jump and let the blockers to jump first so when the moment he jumps, the blockers are already on the ground and too late to block his spike.

24 BLOCKING There are different ways to block and the purpose of blocking is to deflect the ball from the opponent and to reduce the momentum of the ball. Below, you can watch how to use blocking in different ways. \"Read Blocking\", the blockers keep their eyes on the ball and read and carefully analyze the situation. Although it's not always successful, it can pressure the hitters . The blockers move after the setter set the ball so you need a fast reaction speed. This is \"Guess Blocking\", it's a hit or miss block. It requires a lot of experience and should always be calm to analyze the situation. It's a little similar to \"Read Blocking\" but the difference between them is that the blocker moves before the setter could set the ball. In the video, the blocker purposely left an opening so he knows where the hitter will spike and when the hitter spiked the ball, he moved his hand to that location to block the spike.
